Overview
About Me
I was born and raised in a small village of the Italian countryside, with a huge passion for travel, exploration and adventures, and an even greater intolerance for the school system. I’ve never been to university, I don't even know how I managed to finish high school. On the other hand, however, I’m a self-taught study lover, I have always a book with me and I’m also an extremely curious person. After doing a lot of different temporary jobs I found my place working as a salesman and then as a sales manager for the automotive industry. But office life was definitely not for me so one day I gave it all up and moved to Amsterdam. From that day on I have not stopped moving. I’m travelling from country to country working and having new experiences. I want my life to be full of adventures, obstacles, and fulfilling moments, like in books, and why not… maybe one day I’ll write my own :)

Music, Movies, and Books
Talking about music… I’m a musician. I started studying drums and percussions when I was 6 years old. Music is one of the most powerful forms of art. I like to associate music with life, the the point is not to get to the end but to play it. I love reading and writing, for me no activity comes close to the wonder of reading. Reading is a form of mental travel. Every book has the potential to become a way to travel to distant destinations, fascinating people and incredible stories.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I sold everything I had in Italy, bought an one-way ticket to Amsterdam and few weeks in a hostel. Never came back.
Volunteering for an NGO in Jaipur, India, teaching english to the most adorable children I’ve ever met. One of the most impactful and fulfilling experience of my life.
